Seniors Boasting About Their Pre-AI Coding Skills

The generational divide in tech has never been more savage! Old-timer dev with his magnificent beard is schooling these youngsters about the ancient art of coding without AI assistance. “ChatGPT? When I was your age I had to write my own code” hits different in 2024 when half of us are just prompt engineers now. It's like bragging about churning your own butter or hunting woolly mammoths. The irony? That senior probably copy-pasted from StackOverflow anyway. The tech cycle continues—today's juniors will someday lecture about the primitive days of having to type prompts instead of just thinking them.
